| "The requirement for insulin decreased in both patients during the period of renal insufficiency and increased following transplantation; this seemed to be related to the large dose of steroids given because now that a maintenance level of steroids has been established, both patients require the same dosage of insulin as they did before the onset of renal insufficiency." | 1.25 | Treatment of renal failure from diabetic nephropathy with cadaveric homograft. ( Beaudry, C; Laplate, L, 1973) |
